Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.0 over 6 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

3 of 4 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.54 is excellent but a wicket every 42 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 43 × 30% · Bowling 11 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 4 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
45 runs in 6 innings, adjusted average 10.0, strike rate 66.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
11 wickets in 11 matches — 1.00 per match at 25.1, economy 3.54, strike rate 42.5.
